anyone have any ideas on low-med lighting?
I have been searching amazon and TFP alot and have seen some nice double LEDs cheap for my 48 inch setup, but im still a bit shakey on what i really am looking at.

This is my first real tank and we are about a month into it. WQ as of 2 nights ago was ph 7.1, zeros across the board on everything else. Ill have to take better pics next time I get a day off (not this week for certain) but here is one I thought turned out well.

Hey everyone...new to the party here. I'm in the Harrisburg area as well and just getting started with the planted tank hobby. Got a ten gallon and five gallon I have plants in. Would love to meet up with some people to exchange or buy more plants for the tanks as I have a 29 gallon I'm going to be setting up soon as well.

Hoping to find some...went to That Fish Place, looked on here, called some buddies...no luck. I have 72 Watts of T5-HO lighting and a double dose of homemade CO2 generators going on my ten gallon...this baby grows plants like nobody's business. I suspect the HC would take off very quickly in the tank. Looking for some other unique and odd plants for it. Currently I have riccia, java moss, salvinia minima, wisteria, banana plants, java ferns and Amazon swords in it.

Wow...that's a long time! If you have a little to spare at some point I could try it in mine and share it back with you. I have never had any trouble with my tank rejecting plants. They usually start growing out of the tank no sooner than I put them in, lol.
